Cisco IOS Software Packaging
The Enterprise Services image supports all Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series software features based on Cisco
IOS Software, including enhanced routing. Customers planning to enable BGP for Supervisor Engine
IV, V, or V-10GE will no longer need to purchase a separate BGP license (FR-IRC4) because BGP is
included in the Enterprise Services package. Beginning with 12.2(53)SG2, we support the Enterprise
Services image on Supervisor Engine 6L-E.
The IP Base image supports Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) for Routed Access, Enhanced Interior
Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) "limited" Stub Routing, Nonstop Forwarding/Stateful Switchover
(NSF/SSO), and RIPv1/v2. The IP Base image does not support enhanced routing features such as BGP,
Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS), Full OSPF, Full Enhanced Interior Gateway
Routing Protocol (EIGRP) & Virtual Routing Forwarding (VRF-lite).
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(46)SG1 introduced a new LAN Base software and an IP upgrade image. These
complement the existing IP Base and Enterprise Services images. The LAN base image is supported on
Supervisor Engine 6L-E starting with Cisco IOS Release 12.2(52)XO. LAN Base image is primarily
focused on customer access and Layer 2 requirements and therefore many of the IP Base features are not
required. The IP upgrade image is available if at a later date you require some of those features.
Starting with Cisco IOS Release 15.0(2)SG, on the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch, support for NEAT
feature has been extended from IP Base to LAN Base and support for HSRP v2 IPV6 has been extended
from Enterprise Services to IP Base.
Starting with Cisco IOS Release 15.2(1)E, OSPF Routed Access in IP Base support rose to 1000 routes.
Cisco Classic IOS Release Strategy
Customers using Supervisor Engine 6-E or 6L-E with Catalyst 4500 Series Switches who need the latest
hardware and software features should migrate to Cisco IOS Release 15.2(2)E.
The Catalyst 4500 Series Switch has three extended maintenance (EM) trains: 15.2(2)Ex, 15.1(2)SGx,
and 15.0(2)SGx. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(54)SG, 15.1(1)SG, and 15.2(1)E are standard maintenance
releases.
Figure 1 displays the maintenance trains for the Catalyst 4500 series switch.

Upgrading the System Software
In most cases, upgrading the switch to a newer release of Cisco IOS software does not require a
ROMMON upgrade. However, if you are running an early release of Cisco IOS software and plan to
upgrade, refer to the following tables for the minimum Cisco IOS image and the recommended
ROMMON release, respectively.
Note
You must upgrade to at least ROMMON Release 12.2(44r)SG5 to run Cisco IOS Release 15.1(2)SG on
the Supervisor Engine 6-E and Supervisor Engine 6L-E. 12.2(44r)SG9 is recommended.
Caution
Most supervisor engines have the required ROMMON release. However, due to caveat CSCed25996, we
recommend that you upgrade your ROMMON to the recommended release.

The following sections describe how to upgrade your switch software:
•
Identifying an +E Chassis and ROMMON, page 29
•
Upgrading the Cisco IOS Software, page 29
Identifying an +E Chassis and ROMMON
An +E chassis is identified by a FRU minor value in the chassis' idprom.
When supervisor engine 1 (sup1) is in ROMMON and supervisor engine 2 (sup2) is in IOS, only sup2
can read the idprom contents of chassis’ idprom. Chassis type is displayed as “+E” in the output of the
show version command. Conversely, sup1 can only display the chassis type as “E.”
When both sup1 and sup2 are in ROMMON, both engines can read the chassis’ idprom. Chassis type is
displayed correctly as “+E” in the output of the show version command.
When both sup1 and sup2 are in IOS, both engines can read the chassis’ idprom. Chassis type is
displayed correctly as “+E” in the output of the show version command.
Upgrading the Cisco IOS Software
Caution
To avoid actions that might make your system unable to boot, please read this entire section before
starting the upgrade.
Before you proceed, observe the following rules for hostname:
•
Do not expect case to be preserved
Uppercase and lowercase characters look the same to many internet software applications. It may
seem appropriate to capitalize a name the same way you might do in English, but conventions dictate
that computer names appear all lowercase. For more information, refer to RFC 1178, Choosing a
Name for Your Computer.
•
Must start with a letter and end with a letter or digit.
•
Interior characters can only be letters, digits, and hyphens; periods and underscores not allowed.
•
Names must be 63 characters or fewer; hostname of fewer than 10 characters is recommended.
•
On most systems, a field of 30 characters is used for the host name and the prompt in the CLI. Longer
configuration mode prompts may be truncated.

Upgrading the System Software
To upgrade the Cisco IOS software on your Catalyst 4500 series switch, use this procedure:
Step 1
Download Cisco IOS Release 15.1(2)SG from Cisco.com, and place the image on a TFTP server in a
directory that is accessible from the supervisor engine that is upgraded.
Step 2
Use the dir bootflash: command to ensure that there is sufficient space in Flash memory to store the
promupgrade image. If there is insufficient space, delete one or more images, and then enter the
squeeze bootflash: command to reclaim the space.
If you are using a CompactFlash card, use slot0: instead of bootflash.
Step 3
Download the software image into Flash memory using the copy tftp command.
The following example shows how to download the Cisco IOS software image
cat4000-is-mz.121-12c.EW from the remote host 172.20.58.78 to bootflash:
Switch# copy tftp: bootflash:
Address or name of remote host [172.20.58.78]?
Source filename [cat4000-is-mz121_12c.EW]?
Destination filename [cat4000-is-mz.121-12c.EW]?

Step 8
Use the show version command to verify that the new Cisco IOS release is operating on the switch.
Limitations and Restrictions
These sections list the limitations and restrictions for the current release of Cisco IOS software on the
Catalyst 4500 series switch.
•
The show exception files all command lists only crashinfo files from the active supervisor engine.
You must issue the dir slavecrashinfo: and dir slvecrashinfo-dc: commands to obtain lists of
crashinfo files from the standby supervisor engine.
•
Starting with Release IOS 15.1(1)SG, the seven RP restriction was removed.
•
A Span destination of fa1 is not supported.
•
The "keepalive" CLI is not supported in interface mode on the switch, although it will appear in the
running configuration. This behavior has no impact on functionality.
•
TDR is only supported on interfaces Gi1/1 through Gi1/48, at 1000BaseT under open or shorted
cable conditions. TDR length resolution is +/- 10 m. If the cable is less than 10 m or if the cable is
properly terminated, the TDR result displays "0" m. If the interface speed is not 1000BaseT, an
"unsupported" result status displays. TDR results will be unreliable for cables extended with the use
of jack panels or patch panels.
•
The following guidelines apply to Fast UDLD:
– Fast UDLD is disabled by default.
– Configure fast UDLD only on point-to-point links between network devices that support fast
UDLD.
– You can configure fast UDLD in either normal or aggressive mode.
Release Notes for the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch, Cisco IOS Releases 15.2(2)Ex
32
Limitations and Restrictions
– Do not enter the link debounce command on fast UDLD ports.
– Configure fast UDLD on at least two links between each connected network device. This
reduces the likelihood of fast UDLD incorrectly error disabling a link due to false positives.
– Fast UDLD does not report a unidirectional link if the same error occurs simultaneously on
more than one link to the same neighbor device.
•
A XML-PI specification file entry does not return the desired CLI output.
The outputs of certain commands, such as show ip route and show access-lists, contain
non-deterministic text. While the output is easily understood, the output text does not contain strings
that are consistently output. A general purpose specification file entry is unable to parse all possible
output.
Workaround (1):
While a general purpose specification file entry may not be possible, a specification file entry might
be created that returns the desired text by searching for text that is guaranteed to be in the output. If
a string is guaranteed to be in the output, it can be used for parsing.
For example, the output of the show ip access-lists SecWiz_Gi3_17_out_ip command is this:
Extended IP access list SecWiz_Gi3_17_out_ip
10 deny ip 76.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 host 65.65.66.67
20 deny ip 76.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 host 44.45.46.47
30 permit ip 76.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 host 55.56.57.57
The first line is easily parsed because access list is guaranteed to be in the output:
<Property name="access list" alias="Name" distance="1.0" length="-1" type="String"
/>
The remaining lines all contain the term host. As a result, the specification file may report the
desired values by specifying that string. For example, this line
<Property name="host" alias="rule" distance="s.1" length="1" type="String" />
will produce the following for the first and second rules
<rule>
deny
</rule>
and the following for the third statement
<rule>
permit
<rule>
Workaround (2):
Request the output of the show running-config command using NETCONF and parse that output
for the desired strings. This is useful when the desired lines contain nothing in common. For
example, the rules in this access list do not contain a common string and the order (three permits,
then a deny, then another permit), prevent the spec file entry from using permit as a search string,
as in the following example:
Extended MAC access list MACCOY
permit 0000.0000.ffef ffff.ffff.0000 0000.00af.bcef ffff.ff00.0000 appletalk
permit any host 65de.edfe.fefe xns-idp
permit any any protocol-family rarp-non-ipv4
deny
host 005e.1e5d.9f7d host 3399.e3e1.ff2c dec-spanning
permit any any
Release Notes for the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch, Cisco IOS Releases 15.2(2)Ex
33
Limitations and Restrictions
The XML output of show running-config command includes the following, which can then be
parsed programmatically, as desired:
<mac><access-list><extended><ACLName>MACCOY</ACLName></extended></access-list></mac>
<X-Interface> permit 0000.0000.ffef ffff.ffff.0000 0000.00af.bcef ffff.ff00.0000
appletalk</X-Interface>
<X-Interface> permit any host 65de.edfe.fefe xns-idp</X-Interface>
<X-Interface> permit any any protocol-family rarp-non-ipv4</X-Interface>
<X-Interface> deny
host 005e.1e5d.9f7d host 3399.e3e1.ff2c
dec-spanning</X-Interface>
<X-Interface> permit any any</X-Interface>
•
Although the Catalyst 4500 series switch still supports legacy 802.1X commands used in Cisco IOS
Release 12.2(46)SG and earlier releases (that is, they are accepted on the CLI), they do not display
in the CLI help menu.
•
Current IOS software cannot support filenames exceeding 64 characters.
•
All software releases support a maximum of 32,768 IGMP snooping group entries.
•
Although you can configure subsecond PIM query intervals on Catalyst 4500 platforms, such an
action represents a compromise between convergence (reaction time) and a number of other factors
(number of mroutes, base line of CPU utilization, CPU speed, processing overhead per 1 m-route,
etc.). You must account for those factors when configuring subsecond PIM timers. We recommend
that you set the PIM query interval to a minimum of 2 seconds. By adjusting the available
parameters, you can achieve flawless operation; that is, a top number of multicast routes per given
convergence time on a specific setup.
•
With Cisco IOS Release XE 3.2.1SG, memory configuration is enabled:
Switch(config)# memory ?
chunk
chunk related configuration
free
free memory low water mark
record
configure memory event/traceback recording options
reserve reserve memory
sanity
Enable memory sanity
This configuration had been removed erroneously in a prior release.
•
The Catalyst 4510R switch does not support Supervisor Engines 6L-E. Installing an unsupported
supervisor engine causes unpredictable hardware behavior that cannot be controlled by the software.
Using an unsupported supervisor engine in a redundant slot might cause a supported supervisor
engine in the other slot to malfunction.
•
The MAC address table is cleared while you switch between supervisor engines if either the 802.1s
or 802.1w Spanning Tree Protocol is configured. To minimize address clearing and subsequent
packet flooding, configure the edge ports as spanning-tree portfast and the link type as
spanning-tree link-type point-to-point.
•
IP classful routing is not supported; do not use the no ip classless command; it will have no effect,
because only classless routing is supported. The command ip classless is not supported because
classless routing is enabled by default.
•
A Layer 2 LACP channel cannot be configured with the spanning tree PortFast feature.
•
Netbooting using a boot loader image is not supported.
•
When you deploy redundant supervisors in a Catalyst 4507R, for hardware that does not exist while
the startup configuration file is being parsed, the configuration file for the hardware is not applied.
Release Notes for the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch, Cisco IOS Releases 15.2(2)Ex
34
Limitations and Restrictions
For example, if the active supervisor engine is in slot 1, and you have configured interface Gi1/1,
the supervisor engine in slot 2 becomes active if you remove the active supervisor engine from the
chassis. In addition, while the startup configuration file is being parsed, you will receive an error
message indicating that interface Gi1/1 is no longer present. This behavior is correct. When the
formerly active supervisor engine is reinserted into slot 1, there is no configuration for interface
Gi1/1.
This situation will not occur when both supervisor engines are physically in the chassis.
Workaround: Copy the startup configuration file into the running configuration:
Switch# copy startup-config running-config
•
An unsupported default CLI for mobile IP is displayed in the HSRP configuration. Although this
CLI will not harm your system, you might want to remove it to avoid confusion.
Workaround: Display the configuration with the show standby command, then remove the CLI.
Here is an example of show standby GigabitEthernet1/1 command output:
switch(config)# interface g1/1
switch(config)# no standby 0 name (0 is hsrp group number)
•
For HSRP preempt delay to function consistently, you must use the standby delay minimum
command. Be sure to set the delay to more than 1 hello interval, thereby ensuring that a hello is
received before HSRP leaves the initiate state.
Use the standby delay reload option if the router is rebooting after reloading the image.
•
When you attempt to run OSPF between a Cisco router and a third party router, the two interfaces
might get stuck in the Exstart/Exchange state. This problem occurs when the maximum transmission
unit (MTU) settings for neighboring router interfaces do not match. If the router with the higher
MTU sends a packet larger than the MTU set on the neighboring router, the neighboring router
ignores the packet.
Workaround: Ensure that the MTUs match.
•
You can run only .1q-in-.1q packet pass-through with Supervisor Engine 6-E.
•
For PVST and Catalyst 4500 E-Series switch VLAN, Cisco IOS Release 12.1(13)EW support a
maximum of 3000 spanning tree port instances. If you want to use more instances, use MST rather
than PVST.
•
Because the Supervisor Engine 6-E supports the FAT filesystem, the following restrictions apply:
– The verify and squeeze commands are not supported.
– The rename command is supported in FAT file system.
For Supervisor Engine 6-E, the rename command is available for bootflash and slot0. For all
other supervisor engines, the rename command is supported for nvram devices only.
– The fsck command is supported for slot0 device. It is not supported in the file systems on
supervisor engines other than 6-E.
– In the FAT file system, the IOS format bootflash: command erases user files only. It does not
erase system configuration.
– The FAT file system supports a maximum of 63 characters for file/directory name. The
maximum for path length is 127 characters.
– The FAT file system does not support the following characters in file/directory names:{}#%^
and space characters.
– The FAT file system honors the Microsoft Windows file attribute of read-only and read-write,
but it does not support the Windows file hidden attribute.
Release Notes for the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch, Cisco IOS Releases 15.2(2)Ex
35
Limitations and Restrictions
– Supervisor Engine 6-E uses the FAT file system for compact flash (slot0). If a compact flash is
not formatted in FAT file system (such as compact flash on a supervisor engine other than 6-E),
the switch does not recognize it.
•
If an original packet is dropped because of transmit queue shaping or sharing configurations, a
SPAN packet copy can still be transmitted on the SPAN port.
•
All software releases support a maximum of 16,000 IGMP snooping group entries.
•
To maximize performance, use the no ip unreachables command on all interfaces that are
configured for ACLs.
•
The threshold for the Dynamic Arp Inspection err-disable function is set to 15 ARP packets per
second per interface. You should adjust this threshold depending on the network configuration. The
CPU should not receive DHCP packets at a sustained rate greater than 1000 pps.
•
If you first configure an IP address or IPv6 address on a Layer 3 port, then change the Layer 3 port
to a Layer 2 port with the switchport command, and finally change it back to a Layer 3 port, the
original IP/IPv6 address is lost.
•
In a redundant system, do not remove and reinsert the standby supervisor engine while the active
supervisor engine is booting. Doing so may cause the online diagnostics test to fail.
Workaround: Remove and reinsert the standby supervisor engine after the active supervisor engine
boots. (CSCsa66509)
•
The switchport private-vlan mapping trunk command supports a maximum of 500 unique private
VLAN pairs. For example, 500 secondary VLANs could map to one primary VLAN, or 500
secondary VLANs could map to 500 primary VLANs.
•
Support for PoE depends on the use of the following line cards and power supplies.
PoE switching modules:
– WS-X4148-RJ45V
– WS-X4224-RJ45V
– WS-X4248-RJ45V
– WS-X4248-RJ21V
– WS-X4524-GB-RJ45V
– WS-X4548-GB-RJ45V
– WS-X4648-RJ45V-E
– WS-X4648-RJ45V+E
– WS-X4548-GB-RJ45V+
PoE enabled power supplies:
– PWR-C45-1300ACV
– PWR-C45-1400DC
– PWR-C4K-2800AC
– PWR-C45-1300ACV
– PWR-C45-6000ACV
•
If a Catalyst 4500 series switch requests information from the Cisco Secure Access Control Server
(ACS) and the message exchange times out because the server does not respond, a message similar
to this appears:
Release Notes for the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch, Cisco IOS Releases 15.2(2)Ex
36
Limitations and Restrictions
00:02:57: %RADIUS-4-RADIUS_DEAD: RADIUS server 172.20.246.206:1645,1646 is not
responding.
If this message appears, ensure network connectivity exists between the switch and the ACS. Also
check that the switch has been properly configured as an AAA client on the ACS.

For IP Port Security (IPSG) for static hosts, the following apply:
– As IPSG learns the static hosts on each interface, the switch CPU may achieve 100 percent if
there are a large number of hosts to learn. The CPU usage will drop after the hosts are learned.
– IPSG violations for static hosts are printed as they occur. If multiple violations occur
simultaneously on different interfaces, the CLI displays the last violation. For example, if IPSG
is configured for 10 ports and violations exist on ports 3,6, and 9, the violation messages are
printed only for port 9.
– Inactive host bindings will appear in the device tracking table when either a VLAN is associated
with another port or a port is removed from a VLAN. So, as hosts are moved across subnets, the
hosts appear in the device tracking table as inactive.
– Autostate SVI does not work on EtherChannel.
•
When IPv6 is enabled on an interface with any CLI, you might see the following message:
% Hardware MTU table exhausted
In such a scenario, the IPv6 MTU value programmed in hardware differs from the IPv6 interface
MTU value. This occurs if no room exists in the hardware MTU table to store additional values.
To create room, unconfigure some unused MTU values. Then, either disable or re-enable IPv6 on
the interface, or reapply the MTU configuration.
•
To stop IPSG with static hosts on an interface, use the following commands in interface
configuration submode:
Switch(config-if)# no ip verify source
Switch(config-if)# no ip device tracking max
To enable IPSG with static hosts on a port, enter the following commands:
Switch(config)# ip device tracking ****enable IP device tracking globally
Switch(config)# ip device tracking max <n> ***set an IP device tracking maximum on int
Switch(config-if)# ip verify source tracking [port-security] ****activate IPSG on port
Caution
Note
If you configure the ip verify source tracking [port-security] interface configuration command on a
port without enabling IP device tracking globally or setting an IP device tracking maximum on that
interface, IPSG with static hosts reject all the IP traffic from that interface.
The preceding condition also applies to IPSG with static hosts on a PVLAN host port.
•
uRPF supports up to four paths. If a packet arrives at one of the valid VLANs that is not programmed
as one of the RPF VLAN in hardware, it is dropped. If traffic may arrive from any other interfaces
without RPF configured, it can be switched.
•
Input and output ACLs cannot override or filter traffic received on an uRPF interface.
•
No CLI command exists to reflect uRPF drop packets during hardware switching. The sh ip traffic
and show cef int commands do not reflect uRPF drops.
•
IPv6 ACL is not supported on a switchport. IPv6 packets cannot be filtered on switchports using any
of the known methods: PACL, VACL, or MACLs.
Release Notes for the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch, Cisco IOS Releases 15.2(2)Ex
37
Limitations and Restrictions
•
Class-map match statements using match ip prec | dscp match only IPv4 packets, whereas matches
performed with match prec | dscp match both IPv4 and IPv6 packets.
•
IPv6 QoS hardware switching is disabled if the policy-map contains IPv6 ACL and match CoS in
the same class-map with the IPv6 access-list has any mask within the range /81 and /127. This
situation causes forwarding packets to software, which efficiently disables the QoS.
•
When the following data-only Catalyst 4500 linecards are used in a Catalyst 4507R-E or 4510R-E
chassis with Supervisor Engine 6-Es, the capacity of the power supply may be exceeded:
– WS-X4148-FX-MT Cisco Catalyst 4500 Fast Ethernet Switching Module, 48-port
100BASE-FX (MT-RJ)
– WS-X4448-GB-RJ45 Cisco Catalyst 4500 48-port 10/100/1000 Module (RJ-45)
The Catalyst 4503-E and Catalyst 4506-E have no caveats. The Catalyst 4507R-E configurations
that use power supplies rated at 1400 W or above also have no caveats.
The following replacement switching modules will not exceed the power supply capacity for any
Catalyst 4500-E chassis:

Refer to the Catalyst 4500 Series Module Installation Guide to determine the power requirements
for all of the Catalyst 4500 linecards and the power capacities of the Catalyst 4500 power supplies.
•
Supervisor Engine 6-E only supports Catalyst 4500 Series linecards in slots 8-10.
•
If you remove a line card from a redundant switch and initiate an SSO switch-over, then reinsert the
line card, all interfaces are shutdown. The remaining configuration on the original line card is
preserved.
This situation only occurs if a switch reached SSO before you removed the line card.
•
On Supervisor Engine 6-E, upstream ports support flow control auto negotiation in 1G mode only,
and flow control is forced in 10G mode. If the interface is configured to auto-negotiate the flow
control, and the interface is operating in 10G mode, the system forces flow control to ON and does
not auto-negotiate.
•
Supervisor Engine 6-E supports fast UDLD on a maximum of 32 ports.
•
With Cisco IOS Release 12.2(53)SG3 (and 12.2(54)SG), we changed the default behavior such that
your single supervisor, RPR, or fixed configuration switch does not reload automatically. To
configure automatic reload, you must enter the diagnostic fpga soft-error recover aggressive
command. (CSCth16953)

On the following linecards running IOS Release 15.0(2)SG3:
– 48 10/100/1000BaseT Premium POE E Series WS-X4648-RJ45V+E (JAE14310RHU)
– 6 Sup 6-E 10GE (X2), 1000BaseX (SFP) WS-X45-SUP6-E (JAE13104VVY)
the following restrictions apply:
– Sub-interfaces are not supported on 1 Gigabit and Ten-Gigabit interfaces.
– Port-channel members do not support multiple classification criteria for a QoS policy.
– CEF is disabled automatically when uRFP is enabled and TCAM is fully utilized.
•
When you enter the ip http secure-server command (or if the system reads it from the startup
configuration), the device searches for a persistent self-signed certificate during boot up.
– If such a certificate does not exist and the device's hostname and default_domain are set, then a
persistent self-signed certificate is generated.
– If such a certificate exists, the FQDN in the certificate is compared with the current device's
hostname and default_domain. If either differs from the FQDN in the certificate, the existing
persistent self-signed certificate is replaced with a new one with the updated FQDN. Be aware
that the existing key pair is used in the new certificate.
On a switch that supports redundancy, the generation of the self-signed certificate occurs
independently on the active and the standby supervisor engines, and the certificates differ. After
switchover, the HTTP client that holds the old certificate cannot connect to the HTTPS server.
Workaround: Reconnect. CSCsb11964
•
When policing IEEE 802.1Q tagged non-IP traffic and calculating traffic conformance, the policer
excludes the four bytes that constitute the 802.1Q tag even when you enter the
qos account layer2 encapsulation command.
Workaround: None. CSCsg58526
•
When hard-coded duplex and speed settings are deleted after an interface shuts down, an a- is added
to the duplex and speed in the output from the show interface status command.
This does not affect performance.
Workaround: Enter the no shutdown command. CSCsg27395
•
When a transceiver is removed rapidly from one port and placed in another on the same chassis,
occasionally a duplicate seeprom message appears and the port is not able to handle traffic.
Workaround: Remove the transceiver from the new port and place it in the old port. After the SFP
is recognized in the old port, remove it slowly and insert it in the new port. (CSCse34693)
•
When performing an ISSU upgrade and the versions of the active and standby supervisor engines
differ, you see the following message in the standby supervisor engine console:
%XDR-6-XDRINVALIDHDR: XDR for client (CEF push) dropped (slots:2 from slot:3
context:145 length:11) due to: invalid context
Workaround: None. This is an informational message. CSCsi60898
•
An IP unnumbered configuration is lost after a switch reloads.
Workarounds: Do one of the following:
Release Notes for the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch, Cisco IOS Releases 15.2(2)Ex
39
Limitations and Restrictions
– After a reload, copy the startup-config to the running-config.
– Use a loopback interface as the target of the ip unnumbered command.
– Change the CLI configuration so that during bootup the router port is created first.
CSCsq63051
•
In SSO mode, when a port channel is created, deleted, and recreated on an active supervisor engine
with the same channel number, the standby port channel state goes out of sync. After a switch over,
the following message displays:
%PM-4-PORT_INCONSISTENT: STANDBY:Port is inconsistent:
Workaround: When the port channel starts to flap, enter shut and no shut on the port channel. After
the first switchover and after deleting the port channel, create a new channel. CSCsr00333
•
When you remove a line card containing ports configured with IGMP snooping while booting a
standby supervisor engine, the active supervisor engine does not synchronize this configuration to
the standby supervisor engine as a part of a bulk synchronization. When you reinstall the line card,
the configuration in the active and standby supervisor engines will differ.
Workaround: Do one of the following:
– Reload the standby switch again with the line card in place.
– Remove and reenter the commands on the active supervisor engine. The standby supervisor
engine will acquire this change. CSCsv44866
•
After posture validation succeeds, the following benign traceback messages may appear after you
unconfigure the global RADIUS and IP device tracking commands:
%SM-4-BADEVENT: Event 'eouAAAAuthor' is invalid for the current state 'eou_abort':
eou_auth 4.1.0.101
Traceback= 101D9A88 10B76BB0 10B76FE0 10B7A114 10B7A340 1066A678

106617F8
This applies to classic or E-series Catalyst 4500 supervisor engines running
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(50)SG
Workaround: None. CSCsw14005
•
The host's MAC address is not synchronized to the standby supervisor engine after you unconfigure
802.1X on the port and reconnect the host to a IP phone (with CDP port status TLV support) that is
connected to the switch.
If the switch were to run a supervisor switchover while in this state, the host's MAC address would
not be present in the new active supervisor engine’s MAC address table, causing possible
connectivity interruption on the host.
Workaround: Enter the shutdown command, followed by the no shutdown command on the
interface. This triggers relearning and synchronizing of the host's MAC to the standby supervisor
engine. CSCsw91661
•
On a wireless control system (WCS), some device information is incorrectly displayed for PCs
sitting behind an lldp-med capable phone. Specifically, WCS displays the phone's serial number,
model number, and software version in the PC's device information. All other information about the
PC is correctly displayed on WCS.
This only happens when the switch is running network mobility service protocol (nmsp). It does not
happen if the phone is CDP enabled.
Release Notes for the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch, Cisco IOS Releases 15.2(2)Ex
40
Limitations and Restrictions
Workaround: Use the VLAN ID or name to differentiate the IP phone and the PC sitting behind the
phone on the WCS.
The IP phone is detected on the voice VLAN, and the displayed information of serial number, model
number, and software version is correct. However, a PC sitting behind the phone is detected on a
data VLAN, and the displayed device information is wrong and should be ignored.
CSCsz34522
•
If time is not specified in the link debounce command, the default value depends on the supervisor
engine. The default is 10 mS for a Catalyst 4900M switch, Supervisor Engine 6-E, and Supervisor
Engine 6L-E. The default is 100 mS for all other supervisor engines.
Despite the different default value, you can configure any value in the time range.
Workaround: None. CSCte51948
•
On a peer interface on a Catalyst 4948E Ethernet Switch, if errdisabled mode flap detection is set to
a very small number (such as 2 flaps in 10 sec), a 10GE link flap may cause the peer interface to
enter the errdisabled state.
Workarounds: The Cisco switch default link-flap detection value is 5 flaps in 10 seconds. Use the
default value or larger numbers. CSCtg07677
•
After you have enabled EPM logging and the client is authenticated via MAB or Webauth, the value
of AUTHTYPE is DOT1X in EPM syslog messages irrespective of the authentication method.
Similarly, the show epm sessions command always displays the authentication method as DOT1X.
Workaround: To view the authentication method used for a client, enter the
show authentication sessions command. CSCsx42157
•
With CFM enabled globally as well as on an ingress interface, CFM packets received on the interface
are not policed with hardware control plane policing.
Workaround: None. CSCso93282
•
When either the RADIUS-server test feature is enabled or RADIUS-server dead-criteria is
configured, and either RADIUS-server deadtime is set to 0 or not configured, the RADIUS-server
status is not properly relayed to AAA.
Workaround: Configure both dead-criteria and deadtime.
radius-server dead-criteria

•
Occasionally, if you use an X2 SR transceiver on a WS-X4706-10GE running
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(40)SG, you observe CRC errors after a reload or power cycle upon inserting
the card or X2.
Workaround: Reinsert the X2. CSCsk43618
•
Uplinks go down when you upgrade the ROMMON of an WS-X45-SUP6-E supervisor from version
12.2(40r)SG1 to a later version.
This behavior occurs in a redundant switch when the active supervisor engine is running Cisco IOS,
the standby supervisor engine is in ROMMON, and the standby supervisor engine’s ROMMON is
upgraded from version 0.34 or to a later version. The upgrade process causes the uplinks on the
standby supervisor engine to go down but the active supervisor engine is unaware of this.
Workarounds: To resume normal operation, do one of the following:
– Reload both supervisor engines with the redundancy reload shelf command.
Release Notes for the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch, Cisco IOS Releases 15.2(2)Ex
41
Limitations and Restrictions
– Power-cycle the standby supervisor engine by briefly pulling it from the chassis.
There is no workaround for the link flap issue. CSCsm81875
•
Changing the flow control configuration with traffic and pause frames causes some traffic loss.
This problem can happen when pause frames are sent to a switch port and the flow control receive
configuration is toggled on a 10-Gigabit Ethernet port.
Workaround: Change the flow control receive configuration when no traffic exists. CSCso71647
•
When you configure vlan dot1q tag native globally on Supervisor Engine 6-E, MST control packets
are tagged on egress on the native VLAN. This conflicts with 802.1s. The Cisco 7600 Series router
drops its MST proposal agreements (because it expects the native VLAN MST control packets to be
untagged), causing 30 seconds of traffic loss while spanning tree converges.
Workaround: Disable native VLAN tagging on the trunk port of the switch by entering the
no switchport trunk native vlan tag command. CSCsz12611
•
If a large number of VLAN mappings are configured, a member port might fail to join a port channel
and no warning is issued.
Workaround: Reduce the number of VLAN mappings. CSCtn56208
•
If an interface whose IP address is being used as the router ID is deleted or shuts down, and you
configure a service group with a multicast group address, packet redirection to CE stops and packets
are forwarded directly to the destination.
Workaround: Unconfigure and reconfigure the service group. CSCtn88087
•
Global WCCP service configuration fails to enable (WCCP global configuration is accepted but
nvgen fails) on a newly deployed switch if the switch is not enabled for SVI or a Layer 3 interface.
Workaround: Enable a Layer 3 interface in the running configuration. CSCsc88636.
•
If you use the quick option in the issu changeversion command, the following might occur:
– Links flap for various Layer 3 protocols.
– A traffic loss of several seconds is observed during the upgrade process.
Workaround: Do not use the quick option with the issu changeversion command. CSCto51562
•
When you enter the ip pim register-rate-limit command, the following error message displays:
'Failed to configure service policy on register tunnel' and 'STANDBY:Failed to
configure service policy on register tunnel'.
Workaround: None. The ip pim register-rate-limit command does not function. CSCub32679
•
For packets with the same ingress and egress Layer 3 interface, ingress QoS marking policy does
not work.
Workaround: Turn off ICMP redirect through the ip redirect command. CSCua71929
•
While configuring an IPv6 access-list, if you specify hardware statistics as the first statement in
v6 access-list mode (i.e. before issuing any other v6 ACE statement), it will not take effect.
Similarly, your hardware statistics configuration will be missing from the output of the show
running command.
You will not experience this behavior with IPv4 access lists.
Workaround: During IPv6 access-list configuration, configure at least one IPv6 ACE before the
"hardware statistics" statement. CSCuc53234
•
When an IPv6 FHS policy is applied on a VLAN and an EtherChannel port is part of that VLAN,
packets received by EtherChannel (from neighbors) are not bridged across the local switch.
Release Notes for the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch, Cisco IOS Releases 15.2(2)Ex
42
Caveats
Workaround: Apply FHS policies on a non EtherChannel port rather than a VLAN. CSCua53148
•
Memory allocation failures can occur if more than 16K IPv6 multicast snooping entries are present.
Workaround: None. CSCuc77376
•
For any configuration where the source-interface keyword is used, if you provide an SVI that is
associated with a secondary private VLAN, configuration involving the secondary VLAN may be
lost when the switch is reloaded. In such scenarios, always use the primary private VLAN.
•
The show interface capabilities command output does not show the correct linecard model.
Workaround: Observe the show module command output. CSCua79513
•
When performing an ISSU between any releases prior to Cisco IOS 15.1(1)SG or 3.3.0SG to release
Cisco IOS 15.1(1)SG (or 3.3.0SG) or higher, a switch performing multicast routing may persistently
drop traffic after the upgrade completes. You can recover multicast traffic by reloading the chassis.
Alternately, you can remove all multicast configuration prior to ISSU, and add it back when ISSU
completes. CSCuj42672
•
When a logging discriminator is configured and applied to a device, memory leak is seen under
heavy syslog or debug output. The rate of the leak is dependent on the quantity of logs produced. In
extreme cases, the device may crash. As a workaround, disable the logging discriminator on the
device (CSCur45606, CSCur28336).
